A wild video posted to social media shows an alligator chowing down on a massive python in the Florida Everglades.
Katina Boychew said she took the video on Mar. 29 while visiting Everglades National Park.
"It was amazing," Boychew told NBC affiliate WESH-TV. "I sat and watched him for like two hours — I had to. I said, this is something I’ll most likely never come across again."
The 29-second video shows the gator whipping the snake around as gobbles it down.

ANIMALS IN THE EVERGLADES
Maybe the gator was getting its revenge! Back in November, a video went viral after a huge python swallowed an alligator in the Florida Everglades.
Rosie Moore, a Florida-based geoscientist, took a video of the 5-foot gator being pulled from the stomach of the 18-foot Burmese python and shared it to social media.
Moore was among the team of scientists who examined the python and discovered the fully-intact gator inside its stomach.
She says that because Burmese pythons are required to be euthanized in Florida, the snake was turned over to a research lab for scientific sample collection.
This python was euthanized by those who found it, Moore says. The viral video she posted shows the process of a post-mortem examination called necropsy, which is performed on many euthanized animals like Burmese pythons.
